cheers for putting this link up,ive found my material on there and i'll see about getting some when i have money saved and ive got some recaro's

that sites got everything! can't find prices anywhere though, worked out how to order but no prices  
probably have to contact them i guess, anyone found out prices?

Anyone know what quantities are required for a full retrim, fronts and rear, including the black material for front seat bolsters and rear seats?

I'm guessing 3m of pattern and 2m of black ??

cheers

Depends on how fussy you are with pattern repeat. To get all the seats looking the same took 4m of pattern on mine. 2m of black sounds about right

My brother contacted them and got prices for my fabric, which is a woven material, and the vinyl needed. He said the prices were about right and the woven material was very good!

He's also ordered samples from them too. Just email them

I could ask my brother?

What about the back of the front seats and headrests?

I got a reply yesterday form a guy called Henk saying they don't sell to individuals and vat number was required to get on their system.
I will go through the re trimmers to order.

The backs of seats would be staying the same as would head rests. 4 and 2 would be plenty I think.

Ahh, when you said full retrim I thought you'd be doing, well, a full retrim!

My brother has done partial retrims in the past thoroughly against his advice. Also, he's not VAT registered but he is a company so maybe pretend?  

Just to give you an idea my woven fabric is under £24 per metre and the vinyl just under £10 per metre - worth doing the whole lot me thinks!

ah cheers m00 i'll give them an email. but my material will be very similar to yours if not the same but different colour, so thats good to hear. i've noticed they have a british bank aswell as their UK part to the website so they must take orders from here quite often

Do you have a 1.1? My seats are actually in excellent condition. I'd most likely sell them and retrim some others if we can get hold of the right fabric.

Mine are blue, what colour are yours?

My upholsterer in Livingston Transcal is taking care of the vinyl. Only need the material from them.

Cheers for the advice tho . 

Ah, I know of Transcal.

Would be great to see some before and after pictures too!

yeah formel e too, but gambia red not pargus blue, i'm guessing your seats are probably blue vinyl and blue/white fabric? (*sorry just seen you said blue ha) mine are black vinyl and probably the similar fabric but black/white. but i might be interested if you do decide to sell your current seats or even just the covers if you decide to retrim the current ones.

Ooh, another Formel E, awesome!

I would assume they're identical patterns but just different colours and those prices should apply to yours as well - which is handy!

I'll let you know if I decide to sell them. I need to get the shell back first

yeah more keep popping up

i know that's what i was thinking, and those prices are pretty good really, did you say further up that yours is around 24 quid per m for the fabric and 10 for the vinyl?

but okay thanks for that, quite tempting to just get all the right fabric and get it done properly, just time will tell with money and how much that would cost to get them properly done, but let me know about your current seats thanks

Incredible find!!! Book marked and saved, will definately be calling them in the future.

Heres mine all done.
cars going to go back in as the material on one of the bolsters wasnt as tight as the others The rest of it looks good.

The fabric arrived within 3 days and the vinyl is an exact match as is the fabric that runs down the centres of the seats, however the bolster fabrics don't match at all which is a shame

Unless I can find the exact fabric I probably won't sell my seats. Sorry dude!

Nifty - who did your interior? Looks great!

Ah that is a shame, but I didn't think they had the right bolster material nothing on there matched up to it, but considering on how good the bolsters are on your current seats you could always just replace the vinyl and centre fabric anyway.

No worries though, I'll probably just try and find some decent material to redo mine, maybe some sort of similar tweed material.
